I'm gonna start by saying that I don't have access to DDI so I only have a little bit of info on some of the classes coming up. Do any of the primal classes previewed so far have plant based/themed powers? I know that Druids can change into animals and that Wardens have some shapeshifting powers of their own, but what about plants?

Is there any class that would let me effectively play Poison Ivy as a PC? I already quote Ahnuld's Mr Freeze whenever I play my Wizard with 90%+ cold powers, but I want to be able to continue the circle of bad villains with horrible quotes as PCs.

Well, with Warden for certain, you can assume "Willowy Sentinel" form with one of your first level daily powers. All the Warden's dailies appear to be transformative, but unlike the Druid who shifts completely into his new form, the Warden stays humanoid, but transforms into form which resembles a cross between a humanoid and the form he has chosen (determined by the powers he uses). Bearing this in mind, as well as the fact that we've only had a passing look at the Primal power source (we still haven't seen teh Shaman at all), I'm going to suggest that the Warden might be the closest to what you're looking for right now.

You could turn into a plant beast as a Druid I guess.
